Allentown teen pleads guilty to shooting that wounds two men

An Allentown teen admitted today to a shooting that wounded two men last year in the city.

Derrel Cintron, who is 19 now but was 17 at the time of the crime, pleaded guilty to attempted homicide, aggravated assault, and firearms not to be carried without a license.

Cintron admitted shooting Richard Costello several times in the torso March 17, 2013, in the 1300 block of Chew Street. Costello was taken in critical condition to Lehigh Valley Hospital in Salisbury Township, but recovered. Joseph Peters suffered several cuts when a bullet struck a glass door, police said.
